it has to be 6 hours of tuition, if any instructors give you less they're breaking the law

right, i did my pass plus, 4/6 hours or so of lessons, cant remember people have listed the lesson subjects above, it can someone takes alot of your insurance, but remember not all insurance companies take pass plus, so start looking around, asking for quotes, then naother with the pass plus! Apprantly pass plus means fuck all the year after your first year of insurance.

Most driving instructors charge extra for the 1 hour of past pluss, purely because it takes more time, and uses more fuel. E.g. my Dad is a driving instructor, and he charges £17 per lesson, but £20 for each hour of past plus

I used BSM - well worth it. It was £32 for a 2 hour lesson (£16 per hour). I passed first time and did pass plus as soon as i'de passed. I wouldnt bother because it did nothing for my iunsurance but I wanted a bit more time with instructor to build confidence.
